Attempted Robbery.

The Enterprise has the following !;
Monday morning Martin Walker
age II, who lives on F street near
the Gould & Curry dump. and five
men who had been working at
Chubbuck's wood camp on Lake
Tahoe during the past season, set
out to return to civilization. The
camp is seven or eight miles from
Glenbrook, and after they had
walked about half of the way three
masked man, wearing dark clothes,
stepped into the road, and one of
them said: ssThrow I'D your
hands; give up your money" OF
the six men three had revolvers,
and instead of throwing up their
hands tuey pulled their weapons,
and the would-be robbers turned off
the road and walked away.
The same story was circulated
here few days ago but was not
generally credited.

and two the legs, and simultane-

bad omen to have six men at the

this fashion-that is, bad for the
sixth man, if he is fond of fowl.
We have tried several ways and

THE LANGTRY WELL.
The Borers Strike a Quartz
Ledge.

The Langtry we'll is now down
256 feet. On Tuesday the drilling
was very hard, and the borers found
on making an examination of the
debris coming out of the pipe,
that they were working in white
quartz of very fine character. The
cleavage was sharp and clear, and
cts plainly visible. All who exam
ined the rock pronounced it silver
bearing ore. While the machinery
was being worked the drill caught,
and one of the cog wheels was
broken. 1t will require several
days to make repairs. Yesterday
the drill was gotten out.
The quartz is now being assayed.
This quartz ledge is undoubtedly a
continuation of the North Carson
ledge. The ledge now being worked
by means of a tunnel is 800 feet
above the top of the well. The en-
countering of the ledge again at
depth of 256 feet indicates that the
ledge extends over $50 feet below
the present workings. This Will be
good news to the managers of the
mine, who have always had abiding
faith in the property.

that the law is fare enough in

trade is picked up at short inter
walls, but on lines where this does
net exist, the law, as at present

Death of Mrs. Harry Day.
The news of the death of Mrs.
Harry Day was a surprise yesterday
to everybody. The day before she
was somewhat ailing, but her hear
est relatives were not alarmed, nor
did the lady herself look upon it as
anything more than a passing sick
ness. At midnight matters changed
for the worse, and before morning
she expired. The immediate cause
of her death was heart disease.
Mrs. Day was formerly the wife OF
Governor Johnson of California,
and well remembered leader of
society at the Capital and elsewhere
in the State. She was a woman
much beloved by a very large circle
of acquaintances woman of high
breeding and more than ordinary
intellectual gifts. Her death will
cause sincere regret throughout this
State. She was the mother of Mrs.
Guy Thorpe, and an aunt to Mrs.
Hume Yerington. The funeral will
take place on Friday from the fam

charging Colonel ID. X. Anthony, the

sworn that the package on the desk in front
of the Colonel was like the one in which
he was accused of carrying around, as the
prosecuting attorney remarked, "A piece OF

ney, asked that the court instruct the Mar
shall to open the parcel, that all present

of the honorable Court. Judge Hunter

and his witnesses to examine this package,
but as you decided that they have not the
right, will give you this package, which
contains what 1 call quaker-pistol. And
he exhibited to the excited crowd piece
of lead pipe, about five inches in length,
with a small elbow. The laugh against

large sized horse pistol. was long and
loud, and it was quite a time before order
could be restored.
